Rest of volume 3, Issue 2

The rest of issue 2 of 2000 consists of:

A summary of the Templeton conference "Extended Life - Eternal Life" by Michael Fossel. About ethics.

A review of the book "Time of Our Lives: The Science of Human Aging". Book by Tom Kirkwood, review by Robert Arking. Positive review, popular access book.

A review of a paper by Junji Yodoi and Lester Packer, "Redox Regulation in Eukaryotic Cells Based on Thio-Redoxin Enzymes". Interesting bit about mice with upregulated thioredoxyn ("against UV in the bone marrow" it says, no idea what that means in this context) gene having an increased lifespan.
